thanks

I have read a lot of stuff on Quantum Mechanics and there seem to be a lot of outlandish theories on the web mixing QM with every religion in a search for god as the great observer. I would really love to get my hands on a good college level textbook that explains the more supported theories...

You Guys rock Thanks for all the responses, I am one step closer to knowing the secrets of the universe, and I think I understood some of it too.

So, based on the responses it seems that while there is no facts that go against the hypothesis that consciousnesses can collapse the wave function through the simple action of observation, there is also no facts that support the idea that it requires consciousness instead of just physical...

I have seen many programs on Quantum Physics suggesting that we are the Observer that causes the collapse of the wave function. When I look into the experiments it seems more like the thing that causes the collapse of the wave function is other waves smashing into them. For instance in the...
